Chapter 490 Reunion Mutton Pot

Spring and autumn come, and several cold and hot days pass in a blink of an eye. Qingliu Town is still peaceful and beautiful, but it is getting more and more prosperous. There is even an extra street for doing business, which forms a cross with the previous one.

The girls' school in Taiping County is also becoming more and more lively. In recent years, not only boys are born to let him read and write, but even girls must also know a few words.

In the past few decades, few people in Taiping County had such knowledge, but now even the poorest people can tell the truth: the book has its own golden house, not to mention how much knowledge it can have, it can only settle accounts , so that people will not be tricked.

The end of the new year is approaching, girls' and boys' schools are on holiday, and the dolls stay at home, except for the homework left by Mr. Shu every day, so they invite their friends to play around, and they laugh everywhere in the town.

Song Ruchun asked Lan Niu to set up a table for him, and he grinded the ink there by himself, Lan Niu said: "I will grind it for you, you just write."

Ru Chun said: "I'll do it myself, others won't do it well."

This is said by my husband, the intention is to let him know how to do it by himself, so as not to let the girl do everything for him and make him a little waste.

Ruchun has an idea about beating up a child, she is very sure, he must do the work by himself, but Lan Niu can't hold him back, so she can only help him sort out the books, and then ask: "What do you want to drink? Do you want some snacks?"

Ruchun shook his head with a stern face: "No need, I'll finish writing this big character."

He couldn't write a few characters well. Mr. He told him to practice slowly without worrying, but he was still a little impatient: he was always at the top of his class, but he was not happy when he was at the second. One, now that Mr. pointed out the shortcomings, if he doesn't make up for it soon, how can he have the face to go in and out of school?

He grinds it well and writes the post carefully, Lan Niu tiptoes out, for fear of disturbing him.Unexpectedly, before writing a few words, a sudden burst of laughter came, Ruchun was taken aback, and hurriedly called Lan Niu: "Close the door quickly, don't let them know I'm here!"

Didn't the twins go to see their cousin at the third aunt's house, why did they come back now?
It was too late to speak, and the two short and sturdy little people ran into the house hand in hand, looked around, and shouted in unison: "Second brother, you are secretly writing again!"

Ruchun couldn't help covering his forehead: when the two little demon stars came, he couldn't write for at least an hour.If he doesn't write now, he will have other things to do later, when will he practice these words well?
Ruchun tried to struggle: "Go and play elsewhere first, and I will show you something good when I finish writing."

"What good stuff?"

"I want to see!"

The little magic star became more and more excited, entangled with each other from left to right, one grabbed Ruzhen's left hand, and the other snatched the brush from his right hand, Ruchun didn't dare to take it away from his sister for fear of hurting her, so he had to let go, and said with a mournful face: "Just make trouble. If I don't do my homework later, you will compensate me."

He said a little aggrieved, sniffling, "Here, I brought you something."

Recently, the students in the school are playing with the small wooden waterwheel, which is exquisite in shape and painted in various colors. When pouring a glass of water, it can also turn and make a watering appearance, which is very interesting.

Although Ruchun doesn't like to play this game very much, she also misses the twin siblings at home, so she brought one for each of them, hoping to buy two little magic stars so that he can continue to write.

Unexpectedly, the little magic star looked at each other, and said with a smile: "Second brother, come and play!" His hands were tightly pulled, how could there be any room for Ruchun to resist?

Ruchun was even more aggrieved, wishing to go to her mother's room to complain, but there was a baby in her mother's womb, and her father said that she should not be tired, Ruchun was a manly man, so he had to bear the hardships on his own shoulders.

Song Ruchun was overwhelmed by a pair of younger siblings, playing with them, after all the childish nature, at first he still cared about his homework, but later he let go, his little face was flushed and he couldn't help laughing.

Lily rubbed her stomach in her own room and worried: "Who does he look like?" There are two of them, husband and wife, neither of whom is expected to study.

Song Haonian thought for a while: "About being like my father."

lily:"……"

His own father, her father-in-law, who believes in the prince now, is indeed very studious, and Ru Chun's temperament is really similar to him.Baihe couldn't help being suspicious, Huai Ruchun was in Prince Xin's mansion back then, and his son was influenced by something at that time, and the studious and dignified character of King Xin was passed down from generation to generation.

But no matter how dignified a person is, he can't stand the little devil pestering him, Song Ruchun will lose to his younger siblings after all, it's not wrong.Lily burst out laughing.

"It's like being aggressive," Song Haonian said with a smile. He has heard a lot of interesting stories about his father's childhood from his uncle. Turn around and cry."

Lily said: "He is so quiet that he can write without going out for a day. How can he look like a child? You see, it is so difficult to force him to write in the house, but this one can't be pushed out. I am afraid that he will be tired. Bad body."

As parents, they naturally hope that their children will be well-behaved and motivated, but such a well-behaved and motivated child as Ruchun is especially painful. Parents are not afraid that he will be lazy, but that he will work too hard and ruin his body, so they often ask younger brothers and sisters to play with him .

After the couple talked, Lily was a little sleepy, so she just leaned on the pillow and took a nap.Song Haonian covered her with a quilt lightly. There are fire channels under the floor and in the walls of the house. The room is warm and warm. There are several pots of daffodils for offering grapefruit and citrus fruits. The room is full of sweetness.

Song Haonian put down the curtains on the glass windows again to block out the bright sunlight, and then went to the next door to stop a few children who were making a fuss: "Your mother is asleep, please keep your voice down."

The twins covered their mouths and nodded, whispering: "Father, take us to pick up Big Brother!"

Ruchun twisted her little hands, and wanted to go back to writing, but she was reluctant to part with her elder brother, so she was in a dilemma.

Song Haonian was funny: "Your elder brother will come back tomorrow, I will take you to Jishang, and Brother Chun will take care of your mother for me at home."

Ruchun felt relieved, and nodded earnestly: "Father, don't worry, I promise to take good care of mother."

Song Haonian gave his son a chance to take some time to write, picked up the twins from left to right, and went out briskly to go to the market.

Originally, after giving birth to twins, both husband and wife said that they had enough children, besides, pregnancy and childbirth hurt the body after all, no matter how well maintained it is, it will inevitably cause a burden to the body, so the two agreed not to have another child.

The first two of them, Dun Lun, were very careful. Sure enough, they hadn't conceived again for several years. Who would have thought that they got pregnant with another one after being careless in the past few months. This was an accident and a surprise.

Lily is not too old now, so giving birth to a child will not be too risky, but she is not too young, her physical strength is obviously not as good as when she was pregnant with her previous babies, she is often sleepy, so she has to sleep for more than an hour at noon every day.

Song Haonian secretly asked Xueniang to prepare medicine for him, and he would really not be able to reproduce in the future, or the daughter-in-law would not be able to bear it.

Song Ruzhen went to the capital to visit grandparents on behalf of his parents, and brought a letter saying that he would come back this year for the New Year, and he would arrive in about two days. The younger ones were all looking forward to the elder brother's return.

Going to the market, there are a lot of new items this year, many of which come from nowhere, and even the stall owners don’t know what to do with them, so they just put them there as novelties to attract people to see.

Ruying was not polite at all, she asked her father for several things, Song Haonian would not refuse, and asked Ru Zhuo what she wanted, Ru Zhuo thought for a long time: "Father, I want your bow!"

Song Haonian was taken aback for a moment, then remembered that Ruzhuo suffered from a minor illness a few days ago and always had nightmares, except for asking the doctor to take medicine, he found the hunting bow and hung it on the wall of his house to ward off evil spirits.

Ru Zhuo recovered from his illness, and the bow was also put away, but this kid remembered it in his heart, and finally couldn't help but say it out today.

Song Haonian stroked his son's small arms and legs a lot, and said with a smile: "You are left-handed, so you don't need my bow. I will make one for you tomorrow."

Ruying quickly shook Song Haonian's shoulder: "Father, I want it too!"

Song Haonian repeatedly agreed: "Okay, I will make one for each of you."

"To carve!"

"There must be carvings."

……

The sun was fine when Lily fell asleep, but when she woke up, she saw that the sky outside was extremely dark. She opened the curtain and looked outside, only to find that the clouds were overcast, and it looked like it was going to snow heavily.

Song Haonian was discussing with several children how to make bows and arrows, the father and son were all happy, there were chestnuts buried in the brazier next to it, and there was a crackling sound when it was burned, and the black tiger shook with a sound of explosion, but it was attracted by the aroma. Come forward.

Lily dressed and put on a fox fur before she came out and said, "What do you want to eat today?"

The three children scrambled and said: "pimple soup!" "pancakes and rolls!" "cold noodles!"

Listen, there are people who want to eat cold noodles in winter, so I'm really afraid that I won't catch a cold.

Song Haonian said: "I have fresh mutton today, let's get a mutton pot, and get some fresh vegetables to eat, so I can keep my body warm."

Lily then told the barbarian girl to do what Song Haonian said, Ru Zhuo was not happy, and puffed her cheeks and climbed onto Song Haonian's back: "Father, cold noodles!"

Lily smiled: "Just wait, it will snow later, we'll make noodles, and I'll bring you a bowl of snowflakes, do you want to eat?"

"Is the snowflake sweet?" This silly boy has never tasted the taste of snowflakes.

Ruchun couldn't help laughing immediately, Ruzhuo struggled and ran down to the ground, and got into a ball with his brother, but Ruying came over, touched Lily's belly and said sweetly: "Mother, my sister wants to eat pimple soup, I I want to eat too."

This little guy has also learned to be tactful.

Pimple soup is not troublesome, besides, it is always a bit greasy to eat the pot, and it is good to have lump soup to relieve the greasy, then make another lump soup.

When the meal was served, the snowflakes had already fallen one after another. Lan Niu and Xiao'e took out the cloaks and leather boots and put them on for the children. They were relieved to feel that their hands were warm, and they helped them take them off when they were eating. Sitting on the kang, facing the fragrant mutton soup pot, everyone is smiling.

The Tan sheep brought from the north grew up in the saline-alkali land. Not only does it not smell fishy, ​​but it is fragrant. The thick white soup is boiled with bones, and colorful side dishes are placed on the table. Everyone wants to eat hot.

Although Ruzhuo is left-handed, Ruzhen is more proficient in using chopsticks - Ruzhen pinches chopsticks like pinching a brush, which makes people laugh.Chopsticks fly the fastest when the table is full, grab a chopstick for everyone, and don’t forget to boil two pieces of frozen tofu for yourself.

Ru Chun said: "You clever ghost."

Ru Zhuo: "You eat with a pen hahaha."

Ru Chun wanted to say something powerful to choke his younger brother back, when suddenly there was a knock on the door, Song Ruzhen stood at the door with Mrs. Chang and Li Chouwa, and said with a loud smile, "Father, I'm back!"

Ruchun and the twins jumped up: "Brother!"

Song Haonian and his wife were both surprised and delighted: "Isn't it because I just came back, why did I come back today? The snow is so heavy, you are not afraid of slipping."

Ruzhen entered the room with a smile on his face, leaned close to the brazier and roasted for a while before going to hug his brothers and sisters, and said: "I just guessed that it's delicious today, don't miss it!"

When the eldest son came back, of course he would add more bowls and chopsticks. The whole family really got together and had a happy meal.

As soon as Ruzhen went to the capital for a few months, he told his parents about the situation of everyone in the capital. From the emperor to Li Fei, everyone was not bad, healthy and happy, which made people happy when they heard it.

Lily said: "Since that's the case, after you finish your meal, go to your third aunt's house with your father, send them some charcoal, and then tell your grandparents about Li Fei."

In the middle of this year, Li Qingsong was transferred back to the capital again. Seeing that his promotion was expected, he brought his wife and children with him, except his parents.Now the hundred households in the Taiping County Health Center are not strangers, but Xu Caiwen who was not allowed to go home for many years.

Ruzhen was surprised: "Did grandpa and grandma go down the mountain?"

When the old couple was pushed back to the mountain by the green pine, Ruzhen was not young, so he remembered it clearly.

Song Haonian said: "It's cold this year, we're discussing to pick them up for the winter, your third aunt said, your mother is only pregnant, and Yang Yong at your second aunt's house is only three months old, and she can't even get her hands off, why don't you go to her house After the Chinese New Year, it will be sent back to the mountains in the spring.”

When Li Qingsong and Liu Yueniang felt that Mrs. Zhu couldn't be disturbed anymore, they were afraid that the old couple would be able to live with their son.

After eating, the snow became heavier, and Lily regretted a little: "Or I'll go tomorrow, let's rest today."

Song Haonian put on his boots and said: "It's okay, the glass lanterns are very bright, and the road is not far away, we'll be back in half an hour."

Sure enough, their father and son went to Lamei's house to bring the good news from the capital and the New Year gift to Lamei and Li Meijiang.Lily listens to Ruchun after the twins make trouble by reciting the book, and then watches her son ask the twins to read poems. The twins deliberately make trouble, and Ruchun is furious.

When Song Haonian and his son came back, there was a thick layer of snow on the cloak, and they were shocked as soon as they entered the room: "It's so cold outside!"

Ruzhen climbed onto the kang nimbly, several children put their feet together, and pointed to "order the soldiers", and the last one to be counted was the "radish leader".

There were four people and eight legs in total. They screamed and screamed as if the situation was so exciting.

Lily looked out the window and said, "It's a bit like the snow that year..."

How many years ago she came here, only a shabby quilt covered her body, and the cold wind was biting her bones. When she suspected that she was about to freeze to death, this man suddenly appeared and rescued her with a sip of wine.

She is Li Da Niu from the Li family in Liushan Village, and Li Baihe, who used to be a primary school teacher. The two souls of the two lives merged into one, where there is happiness, there is her home with peace of mind.

After so many years, Song Haonian is still handsome. Lily looked up at him with sparkling eyes: "Tonight, I have a secret to tell you."

Song Haonian was stunned for a moment, seeing a little childishness on his daughter-in-law's face, his heart softened all of a sudden, and he squeezed her hand into his palm: "Okay."
